they (not all of course) have the magical combination of style, aesthetic and comfort.
i've tried "walking shoes", boots, "dress shoes" and other smart so called adult stuff but it doesn't do it for me
maybe if i forced myself to wear em i might get used to them, but then again they don't go well with baseball caps and sportswear so i'd have to change most of my wardrobe tbh lol
skateboarding shoes on the other hand are just rigid and uncomfortable, usually
don't know any other type of shoes

i really like trainers too. its not that i dont like the new trainers that are out its just that they all so #wave
wearing them gets you grouped with the wavey brehs. and i know u shouldnt care what people think... but i dont wanna be thought of as wavey. its like the worst thing to ever happen to culture
i dont know how trainrek lives with himself tbf

but agent
you can also rep trainers without being wavey
don't wear a hat and have a nice no-logo jumper and some quality jeans = very unwavey

tbf I wear these sometimes, but they are more of a classic and formal variation of sneaker in contrast to these full blown platform moon shoe sneakers that I am seeing on here.

with how often I find the need to wear sneakers it's not a top priority. ^those would be fine if they weren't white, which I find hideous as well as just irrational with how quickly they become dirty

They've got black and grey ones but personally i kinda like the way a beat up pair of white sneakers looks
And yeah if you don't wear sneakers a lot then CPs aren't really worth the $ either. I

I like them cause they've got a good silhouette and unlike any $50 shoe, they actually last. Every cheap pair I've ever bought like that in my life doesn't last me any longer than a few months (the upper always starts to separate from the midsole cause my feet are wide as fuck).

Get Superga's for a good alternative to CPs that don't cost an arm and a leg. I've had a pair for a while and they're beaten to shit - still comfortable as anything though.
A hydrophobic spray to protect shoes, similar to NeverWet.
Does anyone have any experience with Crep Protect?
Chances are CP may leave a milky white residue on darker shoes, as it is similar to NeverWet which does fuck shoes up. Check the youtube vid.
